Preparation

Preheat oven to 450°.
Cook the cauliflower: Heat a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat until the oil shimmers, then add the cauliflower florets. Season with the sea salt and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 3 minutes, then use a spatula to flip over the cauliflower florets. Return the skillet to the oven and roast until the cauliflower is tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the cauliflower to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain, then turn the florets out into a large bowl.
To the cauliflower, stir in pesto. Serve the cauliflower sprinkled with the chopped cilantro, the 1 tablespoon of cotija and the lime juice.
